Estrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRalpha) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily and regulates many physiological functions, including mitochondrial biogenesis and lipid metabolism. ERRalpha enhances the transactivation function without endogenous ligand by associating with coactivators such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha and beta (PGC-1alpha and -beta) and members of the steroid receptor coactivator family. However, the molecular mechanism by which the transactivation function of ERRalpha is converted from a repressive state to an active state is poorly understood. Here we used biochemical purification techniques to identify ERRalpha-associated proteins in HeLa cells stably expressing ERRalpha. Interestingly, we found that double PHD fingers protein DPF2/BAF45d suppressed PGC-1alpha-dependent transactivation of ERRalpha by recognizing acetylated histone H3 and associating with HDAC1. DPF2 directly bound to ERRalpha and suppressed the transactivation function of nuclear receptors such as androgen receptor. DPF2 was recruited to ERR target gene promoters in myoblast cells, and knockdown of DPF2 derepressed the level of mRNA expressed by target genes of ERRalpha. These results show that DPF2 acts as a nuclear receptor-selective co-repressor for ERRalpha by associating with both acetylated histone H3 and HDAC1.
